A day in the life profile


 

Daniel McGarrie - Mobile Warden (Pool Staff)

I always start my working day with a shift handover which involves discussing any issues on the previous shift and most importantly any incidents which may require further action.

Once handover has been completed, I then begin reading my daily worksheet which enables me to prioritise my workload. The role is very unpredictable due to the nature of the service and therefore prioritising your workload is paramount.

When my routine work s complete, I visit clients in their homes to review their support plan which ensures we always have the most up to date information as possible. I obtain all the relevant support plans prior to going out in the city.

When mobile in the city, I am always available for any type of job whether it is an emergency call or a routine task such as changing a client’s pendant.
